Manual Deployment (Recommended, Works on All Platforms)

:::warning

1. Please use Python 3.10.1 (excluding 3.10.0) or higher. Version 3.10.14 is recommended. If you don't have Python installed, you need to install it yourself. :::

Installing the Main Program

1. Go to the Release page and download the latest version of the compressed package (recommended) langbot-xxx-all.zip (do not download the Source Code as it does not include the WebUI). Extract the package and open the command line (terminal) in the extracted directory.

:::info

You can also use the following command to clone the latest code (which may contain unstable code) and use it:

git clone https://github.com/RockChinQ/LangBot
cd LangBot

# Build the frontend, requires NodeJS >= 22
cd web
npm install && npm run build
cd ..

:::

2. (Recommended) Create a virtual environment

On some Linux systems that use the system package manager to manage Python dependencies, dependency conflicts may occur. Therefore, please use venv to create a virtual environment. Windows users can skip this step.

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

3. Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Or use the Tsinghua mirror

pip install -r requirements.txt -i https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple 

3. Run the main program once to generate the configuration file

python main.py

The following message will be displayed
